Does anyone here have any experience with impaction in skinks the size of five-lineds?? My female has gotten really thick round the middle in the last week or two. It's the wrong time of year for eggs so I'm assuming impaction.

She's in a 29 gallon tall with a grey tree frog. Ambient temp is 70-75. Heat gradient goes from a basking spot of 89 degrees to 65-70 at the other end. Got fresh water and eats dusted crickets. The only poop I've seen in the last few days is urates.

Any help would be appreciated.
